In this video I’m going to show you how Shoe Tying can increase your Business Profits by a factor of 2x, 3x or even 10x!
Hey I’m Andrew Baird and you may wonder WHAT ON EARTH Shoe Tying has to do with Profits so let’s get into it.
Last week I taught my son Rylan to tie his shoes because he was running in the Runathon and needed lace up shoes (previously the velcro strips had done the trick.)
Only took about an hour to show him how to tie his shoes and he was away, literally running!
BUT it reminded me of when I relearned how to tie my shoes.
You see 5 years ago I discovered that there’s two ways to tie your shoes – one way means they’re likely to come undone if you don’t double knot them, and the other means they stay done up WITHOUT a double knot.
Which saves you ALOT of time and energy everytime you put on/take off shoes – which for me is a minimum 2 times a day. So it adds up to a LOT of time and energy savings.
So I relearned how to retie my shoes.
Now it took about 2 weeks until I was really comfortable with it.
And it took a lot of discipline and commitment to BREAK the habit that I’d build over 28 years.
Sooo what does this have to do with Business? Well we often say we want MORE…. MORE PROFITS, MORE FREEDOM, but when it comes down to it, we’re not necessarily WILLING to do what it takes to get it.
And I’m not talking about WORKING HARD or BURNING THE MIDNIGHT OIL, Kim and I have a rule for us and our clients that you must work SMARTER, NOT JUST HARDER.
No what I’m talking about here, is having the commitment and the discipline to make the changes necessary to get where you want to go.
Most people look at me like I’m absolutely MAD when I tell them I relearnt to tie my shoelaces, but I apply that SAME discipline to my business, which allows me to add leverage, work less and make a LOT more, while working less.
And it’s that COMMITMENT and DISCIPLINE that allows me to transform my results both personally and professionally.
So I want to ask you a question – what can you do TODAY to increase your Commitment and Discipline to improving your business results? Because I guarantee it can massively increase your results and help you hit your business goals faster and with more ease.
